How to call a MySQL stored procedure from within PHP code?

I now found solution by using mysqli instead of mysql.

<?php 

// enable error reporting
mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR | MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT);
//connect to database
$connection = mysqli_connect("hostname", "user", "password", "db", "port");

//run the store proc
$result = mysqli_query($connection, "CALL StoreProcName");

//loop the result set
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)){     
  echo $row[0] . " - " . + $row[1]; 
}

I found that many people seem to have a problem with using mysql_connect, mysql_query and mysql_fetch_array.

You can call a stored procedure using the following syntax:

$result = mysql_query('CALL getNodeChildren(2)');
